Identification of molecular defects in Italian Sanfilippo A patients including 13 novel mutationsP Di Natale
Dipartimento di Biochimica e Biotecnologie Mediche, Medical School, University of Naples Federico II, Italy
Hum Mutat 11:313-20. 1998..Interestingly, all six patients from Sardinia present this mutation, and five of them are homozygous for this change, suggesting that these subjects may have been derived from a common founder...
Gene editing in human stem cells using zinc finger nucleases and integrase-defective lentiviral vector deliveryAngelo Lombardo
San Raffaele Telethon Institute for Gene Therapy, Via Olgettina, 58, 20132 Milan, Italy
Nat Biotechnol 25:1298-306. 2007....
Heparan N-sulfatase: in vitro mutagenesis of potential N-glycosylation sitesP Di Natale
Department of Biochemistry and Medical Biotechnologies, University of Naples Federico II, Naples, Italy
Biochem Biophys Res Commun 280:1251-7. 2001..These studies confirm that the five glycosylation sites of heparan N-sulfatase are all functional and show that Asn 41 and Asn 151 have a role in protein folding and/or stability...
In vitro gene therapy of mucopolysaccharidosis type I by lentiviral vectorsPaola Di Natale
Department of Biochemistry and Medical Biotechnologies, University of Naples Federico II, Italy
Eur J Biochem 269:2764-71. 2002..These results suggest that the lentiviral vector may be used for the delivery and expression of the IDUA gene to cells in vivo for treatment of MPS I...
Gene therapy for a mucopolysaccharidosis type I murine model with lentiviral-IDUA vectorCarmela Di Domenico
Department of Biochemistry and Medical Biotechnologies, University of Naples Federico II, 80131 Naples, Italy
Hum Gene Ther 16:81-90. 2005..In conclusion, our results show the promising potential and the limitations of lentiviral-IDUA vector-mediated gene therapy in an in vivo model...
Targeting lentiviral vector expression to hepatocytes limits transgene-specific immune response and establishes long-term expression of human antihemophilic factor IX in miceAntonia Follenzi
Laboratory of Gene Transfer and Therapy, Institute for Cancer Research and Treatment (IRCC, University of Torino, Torino, Italy
Blood 103:3700-9. 2004..These results prompt further studies in relevant animal models to explore the potential of in vivo LV administration for the gene therapy of hemophilias and other liver-based diseases...
The immune response to lentiviral-delivered transgene is modulated in vivo by transgene-expressing antigen-presenting cells but not by CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cellsAndrea Annoni
San Raffaele Telethon Institute for Gene Therapy HSR TIGET, Milan, Italy
Blood 110:1788-96. 2007..These data indicate that antitransgene immune response can be modulated by transgene-expressing APCs possibly through deletion of effector T cells...
A microRNA-regulated lentiviral vector mediates stable correction of hemophilia B miceBrian D Brown
San Raffaele Telethon Institute for Gene Therapy, San Raffaele Scientific Institute, Milan, Italy
Blood 110:4144-52. 2007..This work, which is among the first applications to exploit the microRNA regulatory pathway, provides the basis for a promising new therapy for the treatment of hemophilia B...
Lentiviral gene transfer and ex vivo expansion of human primitive stem cells capable of primary, secondary, and tertiary multilineage repopulation in NOD/SCID mice. Nonobese diabetic/severe combined immunodeficientWanda Piacibello
Department of Oncological Sciences, University of Torino Medical School, Torino, Italy
Blood 100:4391-400. 2002..8% +/- 5.9% of human cells were GFP(+), and human engraftment was multilineage. These results show that lentiviral vectors efficiently transduce HSCs, which can undergo expansion and maintain proliferation and self-renewal ability...
